The 2025 AI Agent Index Documenting Technical and Safety Features of Deployed Agentic AI Systems
Agentic AI systems are increasingly capable of performing professional and personal tasks with limited human involvement. However, tracking these developments is difficult because the AI agent ecosystem is complex, rapidly evolving, and inconsistently documented, posing obstacles to both researchers and policymakers. To address these challenges, this paper presents the 2025 AI Agent Index. The Index documents information regarding the origins, design, capabilities, ecosystem, and safety features of 30 state-of-the-art AI agents based on publicly available information and email correspondence with developers. In addition to documenting information about individual agents, the Index illuminates broader trends in the development of agents, their capabilities, and the level of transparency of developers. Notably, we find different transparency levels among agent developers and observe that most developers share little information about safety, evaluations, and societal impacts. The 2025 AI Agent Index is available online at https://aiagentindex.mit.edu.

Business Insider
Business Insider sees AI as a valuable tool. Newsroom staff may employ approved AI tools to assist with drafting, transcription, research, data analysis, fact-checking, and more. There is always human oversight when our journalists use AI, and they are responsible for the accuracy, fairness, originality, and overall quality of everything we publish. We also use AI for some automated products without human oversight, such as our search tool and audio briefing. We transparently label any products or content fully generated by AI. The technology, industry standards, and the law around AI are all evolving, and our thinking on this may evolve over time.
